Through a study of personal, political, environmental and social issues and the world we live in, she creates watercolors, etchings and oil paintings to shed light and raise questions on difficult topics by using humor, balance, insight and grativity to explore questions both new and old. Join her journey which begins with curiosity and progresses to discoveries and dialogue with those along the way.

My inspiration for painting on silk is influenced by my experiences while growing up in Hawaii with its Asian and Hawaiian culture, an artistic family, and my observation of nature while hiking throughout Oregon. I've always been fascinated with nature and it's wonders, from the tiniest insects and wild birds to the night sky. The natural world influences my art directly and pleases my soul.
